Eluviis kui meditsiin

KUULA ja AUSTA oma keha vajadusi, ning sul pole vaja ennast ravida.

Eelkõige - puhka, kui seda vajad.

Igasugune pingutamine, mis ei tundu meeldiv, on kahjulik.

Toitumisest

Jack Lalaine told me once a long time ago, “I never eat anything that has a wrapper.” Prophetic advice from a nutrition icon. Just think, foods with wrappers are generally processed and then wrapped to help preserve them.

Honey and stevia might be the only sweeteners that naturally occur in nature. I am a bee-keeper and love my bees, but I have to wonder if honey is actually meant for humans. With about 10 to 20 thousand stingers protecting each hive, it makes you wonder if nature intended for us to have any!

Mulle see artikkel tegelikult ei meeldi.
Lõpuni ei lugenud.
Ei usu, et puuviljasöömist tuleb neis sisalduvate suhkrute pärast piirata.

Maailma seedimine

Ayurveda considers digestion the root of all health, but digestion holds a more broad and subtle meaning. Obviously you need to digest the food you eat, but you also need to digest everything that touches your skin, everything you see and hear and the emotions you experience.

Mental indigestion

Newborn babies are exceptionally sensitive to new experiences and are likely to be over stimulated by excessive play, cuddles with too many new people or lack of sleep. All thoughts need to be processed, which happens naturally when we sleep, or better still when we meditate, breathe or find the time and space to just be. Allow your baby plenty of down time, to just contemplate the world, to absorb all her new experiences and just stare into space.

You don’t always have to stop your baby from crying. You can hold them through their suffering and reassure them of your unconditional love. In the pauses between crying you can say to your baby “I love you when you feel happy and I love you when you feel sad” or whatever else your heart moves you to say. You may even find yourself having a cry with your baby too.

What is solar noon?
Solar noon is the midway point between sunrise and sunset, at which the sun is as high over one’s head as it will be. Solar noon shifts by a few minutes every day. Tracking it with pencil-and-paper calculations over your morning tea can be a powerful first step in understanding, and then feeling, the fact that you have biorhythms. It also connects you, through contemplation, to the actual material source of your life.

The morning gathers and builds. Midday executes and transforms. The afternoon releases and expands.
Then the cycle starts again. Evening collects and nurtures. Midnight oil radiates through dreams or bursts of creative insomnia. And the very early morning feels open and vast – perfect for meditation and journaling.
